Mid Night Club Still Exists: Exclusive Look Inside Auto Garage TBK 

When a banner pops up on your phone stating "Midnight club still exists"- everything is put on hold

Imagine living there and not even knowing the significance of this building, just seeing all these amazing cars

that van was polite

insanely high quality documentary work here.. all for free. thanks man, you're a legend.

I have Mad RESPECT for the Mid Night Club Members.

Perfect example of the Japanese people is when you stand in the middle of the road to film an intro and the driver just stops and waits for you. No horn honking,no revving,no finger flying,no yelling,just sitting patiently. I love Japan

The polite Japanese driver in the van patiently waiting during the intro while Dino is standing in the middle of road in the US minimum honking swearing hand gestures possibly just run over lol vs Japan van just waits quietly through entire intro

Dino + Mid Night. = stop what you’re doing and watch. ❤

1:38 Dino, I bet that van driver wishes his vehicle was louder at that moment, huh? lol. Very patient people over in Japan! Love it. Here for the beard.

1:05 There's a Tvr Griffith just sat in a garage as he walks past and he didn't even notice it :)

Takahasi san is the spirit of real car culture

What’s truly amazing isn't the top speed, but the soul in every picture from back then. I’m indifferent to Bugatti, but the stories of the Mid Night club, the tuner shops, and their craftsmanship are captivating. That unique "black magic" is gone now; those guys were like explorers, while today everything is about efficiency.

I have the first, new, tbk hood in the states for the bnr32! I met Takahashi san last year and he was so kind and welcoming. My favorite shop in the world by far!

Hopefully we will soon see the Yoshida special 930 in one of your videos....

Japan's a great time capsule . I wish I could experience that era of Mid Night

Having this level of access to OG workshops and people is such a privilege.

Auto Garage TBK and Mid Night Club is responsible for a majority of the love people have for JDM cars/culture. There's so much soul and character that can't be replicated anymore. That just adds more to their legendary status. To this day, anything that has their names in it that comes up, I'll watch/read it all. Thanks for the video, Dino!

those re my favorite videos he makes when he goes to shops factories etc in Japan .. drifting event goes second

Just felt like Sharing, I was watching this since I'm a big fan of the midnight club and JDM cars in general, as I was watching I got the call from the truck driver bringing me my JDM Mitsu Colt Ralliart Ver R, he said he was 15 mins out, I jumped in my car and took delivery came back and kept watching this. (I'm in Canada BTW) Also thanks Dino for showing us in great details the more closed knit JDM Car culture aspects

It's not just a legend, it's real and still active. Amazing to see these stories come to surface and be documented.

If I ever want the authentic experience while in my pajamas, it’s your content and chronicles. 👍🤓💯

I had no idea Promodet was also affiliated with Mid Night like that, that is crazy

What a sound what a SOUND in that Air cooled monster !!

This video is an amazing showcase of what in essence the foundation of today's car culture was. Very cool!

I think it's amazing how well researched it is. I'd like to see the history of street drag in Japan next. Most Porsche tuners were also private L-type tuners in the past.

Hearing from the man himself that Midnight is still alive is wonderful. It never died, it just moved off the streets and onto the track.

I like long race/drive because my parents love to travel. The longest drive that I've experienced is about 12 hours. As I grew up I watch endurance race. From Daytona to Le Mans. At the same time I wonder, can a sport cars maintaining maximum top speed for extended period of time? And I introduced to Midnight Club. I never wanted to own a 911 or a R32 so bad ever in my life. They really spark my interest on cars even more and I'm still that kid till this day.

What an absolute legend, thank you for the opportunity to see inside this history.

It's amazing to think how these guys literally changed car culture around the world 🎉

Dino Dc my number 1️⃣ car channel its The best.

Wonderful production Dino! I think a lot of us have been eager for this type of exploration of Mid Night.

Fantastic work. Thank you for covering this in such a thorough and respectful way instead of being all sensationalist and "RU-vidr" about it. I wish more car channels were this classy! I've been a fan for many years Dino, since seeing your stuff on Speedhunters back in like 2009 or something. Thank you for your hard work!

Beautiful…. That’s literally heaven on earth.. so much history and amazing work

This channel just doesn't disappoint. I appreciate it!

Glad to see content on the history of the midnight club and their relevancy to car culture and where they’re going in the present and future. Also love seeing shops like this in neighborhoods with residential above. It’s my dream to have a place like this. Reminds me of going to Yokohama to visit Obata San of Refresh60 and scouring the neighborhood to find him. Remember him seeing me and stop working and put out chairs and drinks and talk about car culture in Japan and states. Remember the second visit he saw me and said Ha took the train again. Miss those interactions

Thank you Dino for getting us a view into this place. Very cool.

Wangan is my favorite part of the Japanese car culture. Thank you very much for this vid Dino!

This is top notch content for car culture enthusiast! 🔥🔥🔥 Thanks for the upload! 😄

And still the most underrated channel on youtube

May the algorithm gods bless this man because his content is top tier.

Thank you for this interview.

Bellissimo episodio Dino! Grazie 🙏

Thank you for this Dino! Much appreciated! 👌

Great video all around Dino. Especially the sit down interview and subtitles. Top tier production

Very special episode! Thank you Dino!

Exclusive world premier content 😮

Excellent. Thank you for documenting all these historied shops and the '90s Japanese car culture in general!

It's amazing that these guys were doing this out of passion back in the 90's. After 40 years I bet they didn't know that what they accomplished is legendary outside Japan.

So tasteful thank you Dino ❤

man i'd actually buy a translated version of that 40th anniversary booklet, insane piece

Wow! An amazing shop I didn’t know, until now, that I always wanted to see and know more about. Thank you Dino

Thank you! What a dope video!

Amazing video and camera work. Thank you for the wonderful video on the subject!

thanks dino for this amazing video- i've always been a fan of their body kits but didnt know how involved they were in the mid night club!

Amazing video!🎉

Loves the new vibes of your video sir! vlog + interview + history deep + walkaround

Great feature Dino 😎Thanks for the insight

This is the best thing on youtube. Golden era Euro knowledge, Japanese knowledge, no gaps. Great taste, so good.

This is just awesome!!

Peak Mid Night was cool and all but I’m glad everyone’s grown up and taken their racing to the track.

Appreciate the video man 🙏🏽

Another absolutely amazing episode 😎

one of the best videos on youtube

love the conent you're putting out dino!!

Garage Tbk built best looking Bmw e30 c2 Alpina. Only pictures you can find today are on SH and Dino wrote that article.

Beautiful midnight club

Wonderful story and video

I remember years ago there were lots of videos about Mid Night popping up and I had a bit of an (unhealthy) obsession remaking every car I could find on my games as accurately and as detailed as possible. Even some of the ones shown in here like the Samstag Abend RX7 or the pink R33, to more obscure ones I’ve seen like a 5 series BMW, Advan NSX, and I believe there was a Pontiac Trans Am as well. I just love seeing people put so much time and effort into every aspect of something they like; such as cars in this case. If I somehow ever get a 1990 Porsche Carrera 4 or a new 992 GT3 Touring; I will 100% be trying to contact these guys for a kit or tune, or my own homage of some sort. Edit: My personal favorite is the Z32 at 11:14 or the light blue Porsche 911 shown at 11:39 (that exact picture was my Lock Screen background for years until I changed it).

This might be my favorite video you’ve done. Amazing. Such a legendary team and cars. Loved it Dino, good job brother!!! 🔥 this is for the real OG fanboys!

Wow 🤩

Love the look inside TBK and specifically the Porsche 964. Cant wait for the driving video! Keep up the good work.

Great video, I drove a stock 930 turbo a couple of times and it was a beast, could only imagine how a modified one drives.

I need to visit this place in January.

Amazing episode. Nostalgic for a life that wasn't even mine, haha.

love these type of contents. that 964 is juicy! please do a follow up on the 930 once its done. thanks dino!

All of the shops I can’t find videos about. Dino come in with the banger🔥🔥🤟🏾hell ya Dino

This is my dream garage setup. I’ll keep fighting for it.

Wow 😍

Dino, loved the video and it's great to see that Midnight club is still alive ❤ when are you going to do a video on Mizuno works? Or Pentroof? ( if they're still around)

Dino DC making Japan great again... one video at a time!!! 😜💪👌

I just saw this 964 in Harajuku. It was parked on the street in front of the Samsung store.
